Chapter 032 The Life of an Old Couple
After Zhang Su and the other two prepared themselves and secured their protective gear, they each carried an empty, oversized backpack and headed up to the ninth floor.
Knock knock knock.
Zhang Su tapped the door of apartment 901 with his hand axe, then pressed his ear to the door. After listening for a while, he shook his head. "No sound. I haven’t heard any footsteps from upstairs before either. Looks like no one lives here."
They continued upward. The homeowner group chat had no records of residents on the tenth floor of Unit 1 in Building 3. The condition of the floors and the two front doors also indicated no signs of occupancy.
Moving further up, they opened the safety door on the eleventh floor. Zhang Su's grip on the axe tightened slightly.
Zheng Xinyu and Zhong Xiaoshan both gulped nervously.
The door of apartment 1101 was firmly shut, but a dried and darkened pool of blood had seeped out from under the door. A doormat that read "Safe Travels" was soaked in coagulated blood, its eerie discoloration adding to the unsettling scent of blood lingering in the hallway.
Zhang Su turned and gestured for silence, ignoring 1101 entirely as he pointed toward 1102.
